    Long ago they had cabins made of mus and heather.They used get stones and make a loose wall and fill the holes with mud and puddle.
    They used have cans made of timber called pigans.Then they used the butter and get a rag and leave it on their heads .There was a ring of timber around the bucket and they used put it on there head and go twenty miles to town.
